“The President has directed a whole-of-government response to support affected communities and accelerate recovery efforts. Through this extension, we hope to provide affected taxpayers additional time and flexibility as families, businesses, local governments, and national government agencies attend to immediate needs and recovery work,” BIR Commissioner Charlito Martin R. Mendoza said.
Commissioner Mendoza also said that the Bureau has instructed the concerned Revenue Region and Revenue District Offices in the affected areas to inspect their facilities and ensure that workplaces are safe and operational before resuming regular office operations.
